Extreme cold blasts during two of the last three winters have crippled
gas-fired power plants, leaving millions in the dark and hundreds dead.
And as natural gas is projected to grow in its role as a dominant source
for electricity in the U.S., regulators are again worrying about the
reliability of natural gas plants. POLITICO’s Catherine Morehouse breaks
down the natural gas’ reliability concerns, potential solutions and what
it means for natural gas broadly in the future. Plus, House Oversight
Republicans are launching a probe into DOE climate spending.
